Meng has big problems with reading spin even in pushes, if Ito can keep concentration and do not rush when it is unnecessary she should win.

D.N. in one of her interviews she said - Ito plays the same way with any score in the game ...

In principle, Ito has no particular motivation to win ....Places in the January ITTF ranking in TOP-10 have already been determined, the results of the semi-finals and finals will not affect ...
Ito-third ....
Here it is not visible in Ito mood to win ....

Ito looks lethargic. She's not moving at all. Not enough sleep?

New service motion that's not all that deceptive. It feels like she's holding back.

Also not focused at all, so many let services, fail services, missed chance balls...

any reason? It is not over yet.

The end result is only one factor. But being up 9-1 and losing the game 10-12 in the end is what coaches look at. This has happened to CM a few times already.

which coaches?? How about wining 9 points from first 10 - it is piece of cake for you? During a match there are many ups and down. Imporant is how you can deal after such demotivationg defeat in first set. CM came out more focused and she managed to take all other games. Final score is 4:1. I know that many people (inlcuding me) would like to be other way but we have to face the truth - CM was better again!

I don’t know why but Mima was not in her winning mental state. Never a tchaaaa. Never showing her fist. Never smiling.

Something wrong must have happened to her. I don’t know what. Maybe Her boyfriend has cheated on her ??

Very accurate remark ...I also did not notice a single smile onface, nor a clenched fist ....
And Matsuzaki’s reaction .... He was calm, unusually calm ......

So you prefer CM to loose the match but win first set, right? That would give her ticket for olympics???
Looks like you all know best china coaches and CNT rules and what is under - come on, really?
win is a win - and this win was a big one. I am not sure if anybody else in this tournament could take down Mima Ito.

Wang Yidi is quite capable of doing this .... Judging by the statistics, at least .....

What’s wrong with WYD? Didn’t expect she lost that much to WYM. Or is WMY too good this tournament because she also destroyed ZYL in round 1?

Vlad Celler · Dec 14, 2019

CNT ...
I never watch meetings between CNT players, the first or second team, unless it's the Chinese Super League or Marvelous-12 ...

(Now will beat me severely, I'm sure of it ...)

Maybe WMY is just having a great week. These players are all pretty close. If one of them happens to feel great and play at peak level for a few days in a row they blast the others. Doesn't mean one is really better or same will happen next time they meet.

That's right ... They know very well the game of their teammates ....

The FZD I want is truly back.

FZD: I bulldoze people.

Does anyone know the list of ten participants in the first round of TOP-12 Japan, November 20-21, 2019?

I didn't read it as an attack, maybe some irony. The way Ma Long argued is the way everyone argued before recent times and all was right in the world and no one complained. Another way of interpreting Ma Long's argument is this: "this serve of mine can not be a fault, because otherwise all my serves before this one were also faults and so are the serves of my opponent, but none of them were called so what gives?" And I can only call this reasoning rational.

There was a serve Ma Long did in the 6th game with a short Toss with the ball in full view throughout the serve. My point is that the players are aware of this issue. No one just wants to change. We just accept it as a matter of course.

They have the same coach and try to do the same things. Wang Manyu just does them with more power.

The memory of this 49-page mega thread shortly after Fegerl took out ZJK still haunts to this date.

Elena Semenova: Your service isn't good enough.
